Army sitcom Bolder By the Day off to a shaky start

Now that it’s December, MBN has opened its doors and premiered a bunch of its new shows (along with fellow new cable outlets jTBC and Channel A). One of the weekend sitcoms, however — army sitcom Bolder By the Day starring Park Han-byul — is looking a little uneasy with a PD switch right off the bat, not one week out from its December 3 premiere.

This comes with only two episodes shown (and, apparently, with only a couple more episodes in the can), as director Jo Jin-kyu quit the program almost as soon as it launched. Furthermore, some writer switch rumors have surfaced as well. And while a PD switch in and of itself doesn’t always mean there’s failure ahead, it does tend to make the production seem mighty shaky. It’s not the most confidence-building way to start off a new venture, let’s just say.
